Senate Democrats may place Brewster on foreign relations panel
Senate Democrats weigh adding Sen. Brewster of Maine to the Foreign Relations Committee to counter a partisan split over Truman's Asiatic policy. The move would fill the vacancy from Vandenberg's death and adjust committee majorities, with McFarland and McMahon voicing cautions about expanding the panel. Brewster's stance on European aid and arms programs, plus support for Chinese Nationalist troops in Korea, aligns him with key administration positions.
